Hello, I have recently bought a new server at Hetzner, a EQ4 with 4 IPs Main ip: 188.40.X.12 Additional ip1: 188.40.X.44 Additional ip2: 188.40.X.45 Additional ip3: 188.40.X.46 On the server i have installed Debian Lenny minimal and installed VMWare Server 2.0.1. I want to be to have the additional ips routed to the VMs, so each VM has a "real" ip instead of a local ip. So on the Host I have uncommented net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf and /etc/network/interfaces looks like this: Code: ### Hetzner Online AG - installimage # Loopback device: auto lo iface lo inet loopback # device: eth0 auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 188.40.X.12 broadcast 188.40.X.63 netmask 255.255.255.192 gateway 188.40.X.1 # default route to access subnet #up route add -net 188.40.X.0 netmask 255.255.255.192 gw 188.40.X.1 eth0 up route add -host 188.40.X.44 gw 188.40.X.44 up route add -host 188.40.X.45 gw 188.40.X.45 up route add -host 188.40.X.46 gw 188.40.X.46 The VM network is set to Bridge mode and /etc/network/interfaces looks like this: Code: auto lo iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 188.40.X.44 netmask 255.255.255.192 gateway 188.40.X.12 But the VM cannot connect to the internet, the VM can ping the host on ip 188.40.X.12 and the host can ping the VM on ip 188.40.X.44. Can you guys help me? I have used the following howto http://blog.damn1337.de/2009/07/hetzner-eq-serie-mit-zusatzlichen-ip-adressen-howto but as you can see, it is pretty short on the client setup. Thanks in advance mbogh *more info* I have found another site describing the exact same approach http://wiki.impressive-media.de/doc...e-vmware-server-für-zusätzliche-clients-4-ips But as I said earlier, the guest cannot access the internet.
I'd add this line to /etc/network/interfaces on the guest: Code: up route add -host 188.40.X.44 gw 188.40.X.12
